A free press is not a partisan issue — it is the foundation of democratic accountability. The Trump administration and Republican allies in Congress are actively working to restrict journalists' access, intimidate news organizations, and undermine the public's right to know. I need you to stand up and fight back, loudly and on the record.
That means opposing any legislation, executive action, or policy that limits press access, punishes critical coverage, or shields government from scrutiny. Use every tool available — floor speeches, committee votes, public statements — to make clear that attacks on the press are attacks on the American people. Silence from elected officials is complicity.
